NEW NEW NEW!!

August 26, 2019

BIG NEWS BIG NEWS BIG NEWS!! I’m over the moon excited about this guys. I’ve wanted to give back with my business in some capacity for pretty much ever, but I’m really choosy about who I want to work with. Well, I can finally tell ya:

Moving forward, when you book a boudoir session with me, 5% of the proceeds will go towards supporting @isupportthegirls and their mission.

“I Support The Girls” is an organization that gives new or gently used bras & new menstrual products to homeless women.

For those of you who don’t know, 5 years ago my family and I experienced homelessness for a month. Even though (thankfully) we weren’t out on the streets, I got a strong taste of what it’s like to live with little and go about your day trying to pretend like everything’s okay (when it’s far from it). Because of my own experience, @isupportthegirls‘ mission is especially important to me. Here’s a quote from their site:

“There are 180,000 girls and women living on the streets of the United States and millions more globally. Periods do not stop for hurricanes. Clothes need to be washed and changed. Teen girls do not attend school 3-5 days each month out of embarrassment that they cannot afford menstrual hygiene products. Women cannot stand straight while wearing an 8-year-old bra and they cannot entertain the idea of going on a job interview 3-5 days every month.”

YOU GUYS. That’s insane. Literally insane. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to begin partnering with them and helping them in this way. And so grateful for the work that they are doing.

Please do these women a huge favor and book a boudoir session pronto, so that we can start making a difference together for women all over the world who are just trying to get back on their feet again.
